Patent number: 9156164Abstract: In a method for adjusting parameters of impedance control, an overshoot amount allowable value is set as an allowable maximum value of an overshoot amount of a time response of a force feedback from a force sensor provided for an end effector of a robot manipulator, and a setting time allowable value is set as an allowable maximum value of a setting time of the time response of the force feedback. A viscosity parameter with which the setting time is shortest is calculated while fixing the inertia parameter. An overshoot amount adjustment value and a setting time adjustment value which are obtained from a result of the calculating of the viscosity parameter are compared with the overshoot amount allowable value and the setting time allowable value, respectively, to determine whether a repeating process is finished or continued.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2013Date of Patent: October 13, 2015Assignee: KABUSHIKI KAISHA YASKAWA DENKIInventors: Shingo Ando, Ryoichi Nagai, Yasuyuki Inoue
